Ted Cruz won reelection Tuesday night in Texas even though he was outspent by nearly 2 to 1 by leftist darling Beto O’Rourke. This was a hundred million dollar race and leftist millionaires, super-PACs and leftist donors put over $70 million into the failed Beto beat-down.

Seems Cruz, the most constitutionally faithful member of the U.S. Senate was a prime target of the left and some might add even by his own party.

But despite poor old Beto spending a million dollars a day for the last three weeks of the campaign, despite the media’s 24-7 fawning over Beto, Cruz managed to whip out a can of Beto-Be-Gone pest spray dispatching Mr. O’Rourke and hanging on to a hard-earned victory in Texas.

The contest was vicious and by the time it was done, this was the most expensive senate race in American history.

From Tom Steyer to Hollywood celebrities everyone was fully invested personally and financially, in crushing Ted Cruz. The contest was a nail biter and had Cruz run anything less than a perfect campaign the result might have gone the other way. But that's just not Cruz. He is maticulous in his thinking and very well organized and grounded. And most inmportantly ... he knows how to fight and how to win.

In the end Cruz snatched victory in this furious campaign, giving him a second term as the Senator from Texas and guaranteeing GOP control of the Senate. Here’s the call.
